Just curious, what's the "Wow" part?
Wow that there are still pristine uncontacted people in the world - leave em alone as insurance.

Borneo headhunter tribes now show tourists around as guides and probably shop in Tesco.
Thanks Fingers.

I just think thats amazing.
They've been contacted right into the next zone, and the next zone and the next zone.

They should be left alone but unfortunately, for them especially, trees are worth more than "god's children" to the world.  It's revolting.

If "wow" means taking notice, I'll take it.
Yeah, take notice. But the fact there are undiscovered tribes still around is very cool. Amazing, really. The people who shit on these tribes, which has gone on forever, are shit as well. But that's not amazing. It's typical and sad.
It's $$$$$$$$$$$$

We live in a country that has shuffled it's "original inhabitants" around mercilessly depending on the resources we wanted at the time.
Yep. Huge money. Greed!
Uncontacted?  They're just hiding so their credit card company can't find 'em!  (See? That one little kid's got a Wii! ;) )

Contact with the sentinelese Andaman Islands

Would love to see how he fares in their world with nothing but what he can make from whats around him.
The really noticible thing is the age profile, they all look young, very  fit and healthy.
There are kids and women with them so it can't be simply a war party.

Either the old people are back at base and don't get out much or they don't live to be old.
